Thanks for the bug fix. I agree that the node-ids should not be assumed to be
always be equal to chip-ids. But I think it would be better to get rid of
cpumask_of_node() as it has problems when the powernv-cpufreq driver is
initialized with offline cpus, like reported in the post below.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8887591/
(^^ This should also solve the node_id=chip_id problem)

Since throttle stats are common for all cpus in the chip, so we are better of
not using cpumask_of_node() instead define something like cpumask_of_chip()
where the driver doesn't have to compute chip cpumask.

Thanks and Regards,
Shilpa
